Say goodbye to the ones that we love
Say goodbye to the ones we love
Say goodbye to the ones that we love
Goodbye to the ones that we love

Say goodbye to the ones that we love
Say goodbye to the ones we love
Say goodbye to the ones that we love
Say goodbye to the ones that we love

Violence on the rise
Like a bullet in the sky
Oh Lord have mercy on my soul
Kindred Spirits sing
For the sick and suffering
The city of damage control
This is how we (roll, roll)

Say hello to the cops on patrol
Say hello to the cops on patrol
Say hello to the cops on patrol
Say hello to the ones in control

Teach our children well
From the bottom of the well
Oh Lord have mercy on my soul
Hear the children sing
For the sick and suffering
The city of damage control
This is how we (roll, roll)

Violence on the rise
Like a bullet in the sky
Oh Lord have mercy on my soul
Kindred Spirits sing
For the sick and suffering
The city of damage control
This is how we live

Say your prayer for the ones that we love
Say your prayer for the ones who we love
Say your prayer for the ones that we love
Say goodbye to the ones that we love (this is how we)

Say your prayer for the ones that we love
Say your prayer for the ones who we love
Say your prayer for the ones that we love
Say goodbye to the ones that we love (this is how we)
